Where can I get new 1/2 moon's for exhaust headers

[seestheday]

1981 CB750K.  Where can I get new 1/2 moons for the exhaust headers?  Mine are mangled and bent, one is split into two pieces (have been that way since I got them) and I suspect that they're the source of a slight exhaust leak and rattle that shows up at 4K rpm.

Anywhere other than resorting to ebay? :-)

I've got nothing, been googling for half hour now, lol, I'm sorry man, it's either ebay or bust. I'd give a shout out to Tools and see if he has any spares kicking around.

Which ones do, you need? There are two types.

You can have my old ones. I just installed a new exhaust and the kit came with new ones. Shoot me and address and ill send them your way, no charge.

That would be awesome, thanks slow. Let me take a pic of mine tonight to make sure they are the same ones.

Sounds good bud! Just let me know

[riedling]

I also have some lying around.. They are the 1 inch tall ones not half inch.

[seestheday]

Here is a pic of them.  Looks like they're the 1/2 inch ones.  This is the broken one.  The other 3 are still attached together.  Not sure if they're original.  This broken one curiously isn't nearly as mashed as the others, but it does seem to have a lot of carbon built up on it.

[seestheday]

Sigh, nevermind.  After I took the gaskets off I recalled that tools mentioned in another thread that the gaskets should go on the opposite way that I had them on there (been that way since I got the bike).  So I tried turning it back around and damn if it doesn't fit super snug.   I turned the rest around and took it for a spin.

Ya that fixed all of my exhaust leak issues and a few more (idle seems smoother now, etc).

Thanks for all the offers anyways guys.  Genuinely appreciate all of the goodwill here.

[slownugly007]

No problem bud! The ones you show in the pic were actually different then the ones I had. If you even need those, MAC sells them for $15 for all of them. I just ordered them for my new exhaust (mac 4-1). Just out of curiosity, which way do the gaskets go? Seam against the head or vice versa? Thanks!
